Structural insights into lacto‐N‐biose I recognition by a family 32 carbohydrate‐binding module from Bifidobacterium bifidum

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bifidobacterium bifidum establishes symbiosis with infants by metabolizing lacto‐N‐biose I (LNB) from human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs). The extracellular multidomain enzyme LnbB drives this process, releasing LNB via its catalytic glycoside hydrolase family 20 (GH20) lacto‐N‐biosidase domain.

The Caenorhabditis elegans DPF‐3 and human DPP4 have tripeptidyl peptidase activity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) family comprises serine proteases classically defined by their ability to remove dipeptides from the N‐termini of substrates, a feature that gave the family its name. Here, we report the discovery of a previously unrecognized tripeptidyl peptidase activity in DPPIV family members from two different species.

Survey of the Ecology and Plantation Strategy for Conservation of White-bellied Sea Eagle

open access: yesПернатые хищники и их охрана, 2018
The White-bellied Sea Eagle (Haliaeetus leucogaster) (WBSE) is the apex predator in its local food chain. It also could act as an indicator for measure the environmental integrity and richness in today’s techno-world. Surveys have been carried out in the

A within-lake occupancy model for starry stonewort, Nitellopsis obtusa, to support early detection and monitoring

open access: yesScientific Reports
To efficiently detect aquatic invasive species early in an invasion when control may still be possible, predictions about which locations are likeliest to be occupied are needed at fine scales but are rarely available.

Classification of Seed Dormancy in Pedicularis hallaisanensis Hurusawa: An Endemic and Endangered Species Native to Korea

open access: yesHorticulturae
Pedicularis hallaisanensis Hurusawa, native to Mt. Halla and Gaya, is an endangered endemic species. To support conservation efforts, this study investigated its germination characteristics and kind of seed dormancy. The seeds of P.

Penseelkrab - Hemigrapsus takanoi. Niet-inheemse soorten van het Belgisch deel van de Noordzee en aanpalende estuaria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
De penseelkrab Hemigrapsus takanoi kwam oorspronkelijk enkel voor in de Noordwest-Pacifische regio, maar werd via transportschepen - als larven in het ballastwater of in de aangroeilaag op de romp - naar Europa gebracht.

The inhibitory SAPS3–AMPK interaction detected in HEK293 cells is not detectable in muscle or liver from humans or mice

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study challenges the idea that Sit4‐associated protein subunit 3 (SAPS3) inhibits the energy‐sensing enzyme AMP‐activated protein kinase (AMPK) in muscle and liver tissue. Although SAPS3 interacts with AMPK in cultured cells, we found no such interaction in human or mouse tissues subjected to fasting, exercise, or a high‐fat diet.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Rarefaction and extrapolation with Hill numbers: a framework for sampling and estimation in species diversity studies

open access: yes, 2014
Quantifying and assessing changes in biological diversity are central aspects of many ecological studies, yet accurate methods of estimating biological diversity from sampling data have been elusive.
